Anime9 Sneak Peek

3D Render by spearcarrier

I've actually been working on this for months, but something always happens. Last week, when I was almost finished, the body shape suddenly stopped working. No rhyme. No reason. Stopped working.

This one is a challenge because instead of morphing new things for an existing character like Sakura 8, I'm trying to start from scratch with the intent of moving my Sakura 8 characters to her somehow (they'll change of course). The head has been the biggest challenge. I can't count the times I melted onto my desk moaning, "Sakura 8 is so amazing, why can't they just update her... my sculpting doesn't compaaarrrreeeee... waaaaah... melt."

Today I took a break from moving Sakura and my comic characters over to see if I could salvage what happened to this. It originally was going to have two settings: one American toonlike and one more anime style. It's the American side that broke, so I scrapped it and carried forward. I'm creating things in the spirit of Kioki and Hitomi so I've a long way to go still. But for now I have this, which I didn't mean to have an Aiko 3 like flavor as far as the body goes but there it is. I'm happy with that, but I swear it was by accident. I highly doubt I'll be able to get a Hiro 3 flavor when I get to that part, but I guess I'll try. The goal of course is not to copy or have it exactly like them. These need to be their own things.

I have to go out of town at some point soon for a couple of weeks. I doubt I'll have things done by then, so here's the second sneak peek so far. She's in a Colleen 2 material in Genesis 2 hair and clothes.
